Company Overview

The Providence Housing Authority (PHA) provides and develops quality and safe affordable housing opportunities and services to address the needs of Rhode Island residents. PHA is committed to the core values of excellence, accountability, innovation, respect, and equity.

The Challenge

The Providence Housing Authority faced a fragmented approach to workplace safety, with limited coordination between departments, inconsistent training, and a lack of structured processes for incident prevention and investigation.

The Safety Solution

With support from Beacon Mutual, the Providence Housing Authority adopted a comprehensive safety strategy—forming an active Safety Committee and Risk Management Team, enhancing incident investigations, launching a Stay-at-Work/Return-to-Work Program, and delivering consistent, targeted training.
